@deftypefn  {} {@var{autoload_map} =} autoload ()
@deftypefnx {} {} autoload (@var{function}, @var{file})
@deftypefnx {} {} autoload (@dots{}, "remove")
Define @var{function} to autoload from @var{file}.

The second argument, @var{file}, should be an absolute filename or a file
name in the same directory as the function or script from which the autoload
command was run.  @var{file} @emph{should not} depend on the Octave load
path.

Normally, calls to @code{autoload} appear in PKG_ADD script files that are
evaluated when a directory is added to Octave's load path.  To avoid having
to hardcode directory names in @var{file}, if @var{file} is in the same
directory as the PKG_ADD script then

@example
autoload ("foo", "bar.oct");
@end example

@noindent
will load the function @code{foo} from the file @code{bar.oct}.  The above
usage when @code{bar.oct} is not in the same directory, or usages such as

@example
autoload ("foo", file_in_loadpath ("bar.oct"))
@end example

@noindent
are strongly discouraged, as their behavior may be unpredictable.

With no arguments, return a structure containing the current autoload map.

If a third argument @qcode{"remove"} is given, the function is cleared and
not loaded anymore during the current Octave session.

The function @code{feval} can also be used with function handles of any sort

preferred due to the cleaner syntax they offer.  For example,

@var{f} (1)

@deftypefn  {} {} eval (@var{try})

Parse the string @var{try} and evaluate it as if it were an Octave
program.

If execution fails, evaluate the optional string @var{catch}.

The string @var{try} is evaluated in the current context, so any results
remain available after @code{eval} returns.

The following example creates the variable @var{A} with the approximate
value of 3.1416 in the current workspace.

@example
eval ("A = acos(-1);");
@end example

If an error occurs during the evaluation of @var{try} then the @var{catch}
string is evaluated, as the following example shows:

@example
@group
eval ('error ("This is a bad example");',
      'printf ("This error occurred:\n%s\n", lasterr ());');
     @print{} This error occurred:
        This is a bad example
@end group
@end example

Programming Note: if you are only using @code{eval} as an error-capturing
mechanism, rather than for the execution of arbitrary code strings,
Consider using try/catch blocks or unwind_protect/unwind_protect_cleanup
blocks instead.  These techniques have higher performance and don't
introduce the security considerations that the evaluation of arbitrary code
does.
